DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
How we handle shower tray repair in Boughton Aluph
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s a cracked shower tray and damage around the waste, we can normally put it right, on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron alike.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Do you need shower tray repair in Boughton Aluph?
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
FAQs for Boughton Aluph
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
